I have to hand it to io9 for their editing work here. They took the trailer for Roland Emmerich’s 2012 and recut it 70s style to more properly market it for what it is: disaster porn. They manage to rip on the movie while simultaneously making it 10 times more appealing. In general, Roland Emmerich movies would be a lot better if he was more honest about what he was making and just had some fun with it. In fact, I think everything he made after Independence Day should’ve been called Welcome Da Earff! 2, Welcome Da Earff! 3, Welcome Da Earff! 4…

I suddenly have the overwhelming urge to call the next black guy I see “Huggy Bear”.

Ten years from now this movie will be a documentary…about how stupid all this 2012 apocalypse bullshit is.

Even with bad-ass blaxploitation music, a Winnebago outrunning an meteor show is still the lame shit I’ve ever seen.

That music could be the only way a soul gets anywhere near Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich.

You gotta admit, Emmerich’s got balls. If I had all those Nazi hunters after me, I wouldn’t be using my real name.

I thought disaster porn is when the dudes touch dicks when doing “The Eiffel Tower”.

Did the Mayans know this movie would come out in 2012, and thus bring about the end of civilization or did Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich hear about the Mayans predicting something bad happening in 2012 so they made a movie about it?

Its like the Kyle Reese Terminator paradox.

For added reality, I’ll be in select theaters throwing rocks at moviegoers throughout this film.
